Radiology

Radiology is a medical specialty that utilizes imaging technologies to diagnose and treat diseases and conditions within the body. It involves a variety of techniques, including X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), ultrasound, and nuclear medicine. Radiologists are medical doctors who interpret these images to provide accurate diagnoses and guide treatment decisions. Radiology plays a crucial role in modern medicine, enabling early detection of conditions such as fractures, tumors, and internal injuries, as well as monitoring the progression of diseases and assessing the effectiveness of treatments. The field encompasses both diagnostic radiology, which focuses on image interpretation, and interventional radiology, which involves minimally invasive procedures guided by imaging techniques.
